National Action Plan to Combat Human Trafficking
From the Document: "This 'National Action Plan' represents our unwavering commitment to fighting human trafficking. It is built around the 'three pillars' laid out in the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (TVPA) -- Prevention, Protection, and Prosecution -- and lays out specific action items we are taking underneath each pillar. The 'National Action Plan' also emphasizes collaboration, cutting across all sectors, to make our efforts as effective as possible. Through this whole-of-government approach, the United States will use every tool at its disposal to combat human trafficking and build on existing momentum."
